Later in 2003, Jonell was set to release her debut album "''Know Me''" on the [[Def Soul]] label. Her first single ''So Whassup'' featured a guest appearance by [[Redman (rapper)|Redman]]. However, the album was never released, and in 2005, her webpage on the [[Def Soul]] website was no longer accessible.

She resurfaced in late 2005 with a blog on MySpace, where she talked about working on her new album which never materialized.
